tions “To Turn Off Gas to Appliance”, below and
call your service technician or gas supplier.

A
. This appliance does not have a pilot. It is
equipped with an ignition device which automat-
ically lights the burner.
DO NOT
try to light the
burner by hand.
B. BEFORE OPERATING, smell all around the
appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to
the floor because some gas is heavier than air and
will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use
any phone in your building
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s
instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the
fire department.
C. Use only your hand to turn the external manual gas
valve. Never use tools. If the valve will not turn by
hand, don’t try to repair it; call a qualified service
technician. Force or attempted repair may result in
a fire or explosion.
D. Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified service
technician to inspect the appliance and to replace
any part of the control system and any gas control
